Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes, if the permissible is in place of the forbidden, the disliked enters into it.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : I mean, for example, if we say, "It is not permissible to do such and such," it may be disliked.
The questioner : Okay, Shaykh, for example, entering the mosque with the left foot is disliked, if... we say it is permissible.
The Shaykh : No, no, how is it disliked, and what is the evidence for the dislike? Entering the mosque with the left foot is disliked, and what is the evidence? Do you need evidence?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : No, in any case, the scholars say that negating permissibility, if the intention is prohibition, does not preclude dislike. I may say, "It is not permissible," and it is disliked, so it is a disliked permissible, meaning it is not forbidden. But when we categorize, we say permissible, forbidden, and disliked, so the disliked is not the permissible. As for entering the mosque with the left foot, this is important, and we should pay attention to it.
